Tell him again he don't care much to hear
|
Mtsheleni madoda akafuni ukulalele
|
|
I was talking to him again
|
But the never understands me
|
He thinks it is very strange
|
That I should question what he hands me
|
He can't imagine I have a feeling for what I can be
|
|
Hey brother! Listen to the river whenever you want to remember the sea
|
Hey brother! Listen to the feeling in your heart it also flows through me
|
|
CHORUS:
|
Tell him again - he don't care much to hear
|
Tell him again - I need my liberty
|
Tell him again - freedom's in the air
|
Tell him again - take these chains off me
|
Tell him again - he don't care much to hear
|
Tell him again - he is just like me
|
Tell him again - freedom's in the air
|
Tell him again - I was born to be free
|
|
We have all been sentenced to this life
|
Everyone is a defendent
|
We are all prisoners of time
|
We are destined to spend it
|
But we must be free to choose the way we serve the sentence
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
If there comes a time
|
I will take this life
|
And lay it down
|
For my liberty
|
Oh it's such a shame
|
Such a tragedy
|
But it's all I have
|
To make you see
|
All the air I breathe
|
All the things I have
|
They don't mean that much
|
If I can't be free
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
So long I've been waiting
|
All my heart is breaking
|
Freedom long forsaken
|
Together we can make it
|
